Bittorents on linux are driving me nuts!

****** you can skip this part if you like*********
Okay, I have a computer (obviously) with an internet connection (no waaay!) About two years ago, my mom got fed up with having a computer in the hallway soooo! we moved the computer upstairs and hooked up our pre-existing DSL connection to a wireless thingy. SO now we have the same computer and the same ISP, just with a wireless connection in between.
******** okay, here comes the important stuff >__<

Oh yeah one last thing, this has happened with all the Linux OS’s I’ve ever used (Sabayon, Mint, Bianca, SUSE, etc…) and on both of the wireless devices I’ve had (FON and Netgear)
